SATURDAY!  Greetings from the capital of Czechoslovakia - PRAGUE, BABY!  So what do we know about this former Communist dominated land?  Well, how about this - BEER WAS INVENTED HERE!  That's right folks, you've heard of a "Pilsner" beer, well what about Pilsen, Czechoslovakia?  Oh yeah, this is our kind of country and Prague is our kind of town.  The "red light" district here is enormous, there are pubs and bars literally EVERYWHERE and we're sleeping in a burned-out apartment building (NOT KIDDING) in back of a grocery store loading dock (SERIOUSLY, NOT KIDDING!) owned by a 78 year old former Hungarian school teacher that is a few tacos shy of a combination plate (WE AREN'T F'ing KIDDING!).  Look, she's really nice, she did our laundry (NOT KIDDING), she's only charging us $30 bucks a night and her visiting niece has REALLY made us feel welcome - if you know what we mean.

We arrived yesterday on the late afternoon train from Berlin and plan on hanging around through the weekend.  Last night we partied in the "Old Town" square drinking beer at an outdoor pub until well past midnight.  We realize that breaks our long standing rule that if we're not in bed by 10pm we go back to our own room, but sometimes rules are meant to be broken, right?  Like the time we broke that rule in 3rd grade about not eating paste, and the time we broke that rule in 7th grade about not smoking behind the gym and the time we broke that rule three days ago in Stockholm about not... (well that wasn't actually a rule, it was more of a guideline - besides, they said they wanted to be tied up!).  Anyway, you get the idea.  When in Prague do as the "Pragonians" do!

There's another reason we're in Prague besides the cheap beer (BUDWEISER - NOT KIDDING!) and loose morals.  We read on the internet (and got tons of emails from people we know) about some obscure bank failure in United States yesterday and it's subsequent seizure by the FDIC ("Your deposits insured to $100,000!")  Folks, let's be real clear about this, THE WARSAW PACT DOES NOT PROVIDE FOR EXTRADITION TO THE U.S. FROM EASTERN BLOC COUNTRIES FOR FINANCIAL REASONS!  It's not that we have anything to hide (well we do, but not financially!), but we do feel allot safer drinking beer in Czechoslovakia rather than in California right now.  God bless the Warsaw Pact, God bless Prague strippers that give free lapdances to Americans and most of all, God bless Budweiser...
